Rough Guide to Bali

Penjor "Hey I am coming to Bali, can you recommend me things to do?" I got that question a lot. I get it, I live in Bali so people would think that I master everything about Bali. Well... 50:50. I happened to travel around Bali since 2017. So it wasn't wrong to assume me knowing Bali. But I am also a lazy traveler so I don't always do many things in one place.  That is why we will call this a rough guide to Bali.  First thing first, define your style of traveling. Because we all know that Bali is an island. Not a city. So it is quite big, you know. You can not explore all of it in two weeks. Well you might be able to do so, but probably not immersing enough of it.  So... what is your style of traveling? Bali offers you some cultures, quiet normal life, party hotspots, quiet beaches, busy beaches, temples, and so on.  Mt Batur West part of Bali (Canggu, Seminyak, Kuta) If you enjoy partying, you might want to spend your time more in the west part of Bali like Canggu, ...

Wedding exibition

Last month, me and another Prisca were so stress because of job. And we decided to go to mall to eat pentol gila *spicy meetball*. We both talked about many things, this and that, also ate our pentol gila. Done with pentol gila, we didnt know what to do, just walk around then looked at something downstair. There were wedding exibition and what we did?? Screaming and said "LETS GO THERE! LOOK AT WEDDING DRESS AND STUFF!!!! LETS GO!".

People who wants to get married always react like that, for sure.

Well the exibition offered wedding dress like kebaya. Mostly kebaya, but I didnt see something good. I found something interest like price of photo booth, catering and wedding ring. We stopped for a long time in wedding ring booth. Looking for a nice simple wedding ring.

Asked the owner and I want to have Palladium one for my wedding ring because a man couldnt wear the gold one. But then she recomended to get the gold one for me, and palladium for husband. The price is the same between white gold and palladium. She also recomend to buy it around may-june. Because can get the cheaper price than now.

There were a lot of nice wedding ring. But I found one look nice and simpler, also not so big. So I think it would be nice to wear.

The owner also asked when I plan to get married. Both Prisca said "InshaAllah this year" haha. And ohh marketing style, she said "ohh I really hope you both could get married soon, and dont forget to visit our showroom and get a nice couple ring there ya.. see you soon there!". Nah lho

If you wanna get the cheaper price of gold, you can go get them on May-June. Its not only recomended for couple who want to get the ring, but also best time for people who want to invest some money in buying gold. Then you can sell it later on month like January-Feb *because I found this price of gold expensive this month*.  And Oh for you who are muslim, since your future husband couldnt wear the gold one, you can get him the Palladium one. It has the same price but different price whn you sell it later. Ahh you wouldnt sell your wedding ring right?

Wedding exibition will always be so important for people to get reference for their wedding. I dont know when I will get married, just.. look for wedding references also nice thing to do to release all stress from work.

Have a nice day :)

[Piknik] Prambanan lagi

Salah satu pesona Jawa Tengah adalah Candi Prambanan. Saya sudah 3 kali berkunjung ke situs warisan dunia ini. Candi yang terletak di perbatasan Jawa Tengah dan jogja ini selalu menimbulkan kesan mistis bagi saya. Terletak tak jauh dari jalan raya, sehingga mengunjunginya pun sangat mudah. Berbeda dengan Candi Borobudur yang letaknya sangat jauh dari jalan raya besar.  Ok, menurut saya ada 3 cara menuju candi ini. Menggunakan bus transjogja, taksi, dan kendaraan pribadi. Bagi yang menggunakan transjogja, saya pernah menggunakannya berangkat dari daerah kampus UNY, daerah Depok Sleman. 1 kali transit, 2 kali berganti bus. Dengan harga transjogja yang kala itu, 2014, seharga 3500 rupiah. Tapi sampai saat ini masih sama harganya, menurut info dari teman. Lokasi shelter bis berada agak jauh dari pintu masuk lokasi candi, mungkin kira-kira 500meter sampai 1kilometer. Kalau jalan, menghabiskan waktu sekitar 15-20menit. Bisa juga naik becak untuk opsi yang lain. Lagi-lagi, jangan lupa...

Pakai Debit Jenius di Luar Negeri

Amsterdam Central Station  Ini pertama kalinya pakai debit Jenius di luar negeri. Pemakaian ini menggunakan sumber dana EUR yang ada di aplikasi. Jadi uang yang keluar adalah uang EUR, bukan IDR.  Untuk buka rekening valas di Jenius, tinggal ditambahkan saja bagian buka akun valas lalu pilih kurs yang diinginkan. Di kasus ini gw punya rekening EUR di Jenius yang ditujukan untuk transaksi di Eropa.  Karena kemarin lagi di Belanda, akhirnya pengen coba pakai debit card Jenius karena EDC di Belanda belum tentu bisa untuk kartu kredit saja. Sebelum digunakan tentunya jangan lupa untuk menyambungkan kartu debit ke rekening mata uang asingnya biar sumber pengeluaran juga langsung dari tabungan valas itu. Tinggal klik klik aja kok. Tibalah saatnya menggunakan mata uang EUR yang sudah kubeli dari Jenius. Waktu itu gw pakainya di Schipol, di dua toko berbeda, dan keduanya nggak bisa tap langsung. Jadi harus insert kartu, tentu bukan masalah.  Karena terbiasa dengan transaksi...
